Portland is one the most under-rated cities in America, possibly because travellers rarely make it this far northwest. The many city parks and gardens make it a delightfully green city with a pleasant, almost northern-European climate, something that has contributed to its reputation as the “Rose Capital of America”.

Portland has a growing reputation as a culinary centre, and combined with having played a proud role in America’s micro-brewery revolution, it is a great place for a few nights on the town. The many diverse museums plus the city’s proximity to the wonderful open spaces and natural attractions of the Pacific Northwest region make it the perfect base from which to explore.

Where you stay is the heart of your holiday. Location reigns supreme but do you prefer resort facilities or unique and boutique? Historic and old world or modern and shiny?

We aim to present choices across the spectrum but there are many hundreds of places to stay
and not room to feature them all. Do speak to your Bon Voyage travel consultant and click the

We would rate the Bellagio as one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in.
Fabulous, glitzy, exciting. We loved having breakfast at the poolside
café... one of our best experiences ever. If it hadn't been for you we
wouldn't have had the suite or cabana and we loved them. We both agreed
that the hotel was the best for us and you had suggested that so well done!

Hotel Fifty

Set in an enviable location in the city of Portland, where the downtown meets the river.
